Terms & Conditions

Last updated June 27th, 2019

AGREEMENT TO TERMS

These Terms and Conditions constitute a legally binding agreement made between you, whether personally or on behalf of an entity (“you”) and Lucky Car Arts (“we,” “us” or “our”), concerning your access to and use of our mobile application (the “Application”). You agree that by accessing the Application, you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by all of these Terms and Conditions Use. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH ALL OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, THEN YOU ARE EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED FROM USING THE APPLICATION AND YOU MUST DISCONTINUE USE IMMEDIATELY.

Supplemental terms and conditions or documents that may be posted on the Application from time to time are hereby expressly incorporated herein by reference. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to make changes or modifications to these Terms and Conditions at any time and for any reason. We will alert you about any changes by updating the “Last updated” date of these Terms and Conditions and you waive any right to receive specific notice of each such change. It is your responsibility to periodically review these Terms and Conditions to stay informed of updates.  You will be subject to, and will be deemed to have been made aware of and to have accepted, the changes in any revised Terms and Conditions by your continued use of the Application after the date such revised Terms are posted.

THE SERVICES AND APPLICATIONS PROVIDED BY LUCKY CAT ARTS ARE SOCIAL GAMING AND ARE INTENDED FOR AMUSEMENT AND ENTERTAINMENT ONLY. THE SERIVCES AND APPLICATIONS ARE NOT GAMBLING. NO MONEY IS REQUIRED TO PLAY OUR GAMES AND NOTHING OF VALUE CAN BE WON BY PLAYING THE GAMES.

AS AN ELEMENT OF THE GAMES, YOU CAN OBTAIN VIRTUAL CURRENCY TO PLAY THE GAME. THE GAME CURRENCY CAN BE PURCHASED FOR REAL MONEY OR WON DURING GAMEPLAY, BUT IT HAS NO CASH VALUE. YOU MAY NOT SELL, TRADE, TRANSFER, CASH OUT, REDEEM OR IN ANY OTHER WAY EXCHANGE THE VIRTUAL IN-GAME CURRENCY FOR REAL MONEY OR FOR ANY REAL GOODS. PLEASE ALSO NOTE THAT THE GAMES DO NOT COPY ANY REAL MACHINE FROM REAL-WORLD CASINOS, SO YOU MUST NOT EXPECT THE SAME OR SIMILAR FEATURES, PARAMETERS OR RESULTS.

The information provided on the Application is not intended for distribution to or use by any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation or which would subject us to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction or country. Accordingly, those persons who choose to access the Application from other locations do so on their own initiative and are solely responsible for compliance with local laws, if and to the extent local laws are applicable.

PURCHASES; GAME CURRENCY; NO REFUNDS.

Certain features of the Service may be subject to a fee, which can change over time (higher, lower or both). Application features may include the possibility to purchase upgrades (such as access to certain elements in the Service) or to purchase virtual currency to play a game (“Game Currency”). Applicable fees are displayed in the Service in connection with the respective feature of the Service. We reserve the right to change the pricing for the goods and services offered through the Service, including the Game Currency, at any time.

The Game Currency or upgrades, where applicable, can be purchased for real money or won during gameplay, but they have absolutely no cash value. Game Currency is entirely non-transferrable and has no real world value. Any Game Currency you purchase or win during gameplay is licensed to you on a limited, personal, non-transferable, non-sublicensable and revocable basis and only for non-commercial use in the Service. Game Currency is licensed, not sold to you. Game Currency may never be redeemed for actual monetary instruments, goods or other items of monetary value from Lucky Cat Arts or any other party. You agree not to sell, trade, redeem or otherwise transfer Game Currency to any person or entity, including but not limited to another user or any third party, or in any other way cash out or exchange the Game Currency for real money or for any real goods.

You are responsible for all charges and usage on your User Account or using your user credentials and all purchases made by you or anyone that uses your User Account or user credentials, including applicable taxes. You may pay using the methods available in the Service from time to time, which may include payment via your Apple, Google or Amazon account, or other similar accounts, and you agree to the terms and conditions applicable to each payment method you choose, including any additional payment processing fees which may be applicable. We are not responsible or liable for any issues related to the services provided by the payment provider to you in connection with the purchase.

You (i) represent that you are authorized to use the payment method you use and that any payment information you provide is true and accurate; and (ii) authorize us and/or the applicable payment provider to charge you for the Service using your payment method. You must promptly update all billing information to keep it current, complete, and accurate (such as a change in billing address, credit card number, or credit card expiration date), and you must promptly notify us and the applicable payment provider if your credit card is canceled, lost or stolen or if the security of your payment method has otherwise become compromised. You also understand that the payment platforms (e.g., Apple’s App Store) may provide us with very limited information regarding your purchases. We may not be able to provide you with information as to your purchase history as you might expect that we would be able to do so.

Provision of Game Currency and any upgrades is a service that is offered to you as a part of the Service. By paying the applicable fees you acknowledge and agree that the provision of the Game Currency or any upgrades commences immediately upon you subscribing to or purchasing such service and therefore any right of withdrawal or right of cancellation or “cooling off” period DOES NOT APPLY.

ANY APPLICABLE FEES AND OTHER CHARGES ARE PAYABLE IN ADVANCE AND ARE NOT REFUNDABLE IN WHOLE OR IN PART. IN PARTICULAR, ANY PAYMENT FOR LICENSE FOR GAME CURRENCY OR UPGRADES IS ALWAYS FINAL AND NON-REFUNDABLE.

PLEASE NOTE THAT WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY GAME CURRENCY THAT IS LOST, DAMAGED, DELETED OR USED INAPPROPRIATELY, OR FOR GAME PLAY INTERRUPTIONS OR PREMATURE GAME TERMINATION, REGARDLESS OF CAUSE, THAT RESULT IN GAME CURRENCY BEING SPENT. WE MAY MANAGE, REGULATE, MODIFY, CONTROL OR ELIMINATE GAME CURRENCY AT ANY TIME IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION, WITH OR WITHOUT NOTICE. IF WE EXERCISE SUCH RIGHTS, WE WILL HAVE NO LIABILITY TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY.

IF YOU MAKE A REQUEST THAT WE DELETE YOUR PERSONAL DATA OR YOUR USER ACCOUNT, THIS REQUEST IS IRREVOCABLE. ONCE THE REQUEST HAS BEEN MADE, ANY GAME CURRENCY OR IN-APP PURCHASES MAY BE UNAVAILABLE PRIOR TO THE FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUEST AND, AFTER THE FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUEST, WILL NO LONGER BE AVAILABLE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.

DO NOT EXPECT THAT YOU WILL BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO CHANGE YOUR MIND ONCE A DELETION REQUEST HAS BEEN SUBMITTED!

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY REQUIRED BY LAW, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT WE ARE NOT OBLIGATED TO PROVIDE ANY REFUNDS FOR ANY REASON. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT ALL GAME CURRENCY WILL BE FORFEITED AND YOU WILL NOT BE ENTITLED TO RECEIVE MONEY OR OTHER COMPENSATION FOR UNUSED GAME CURRENCY WHEN AN ACCOUNT IS TERMINATED OR SUSPENDED FOR ANY REASON, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION WAS VOLUNTARY OR INVOLUNTARY, OR IF WE DISCONTINUE PROVIDING THE SERVICE OR ANY PARTICULAR GAME.

You are solely responsible for any costs you incur to access the Service through any Internet, wireless or other communication service, such as any fees for web browsing, messaging, and data usage on an Internet provider’s or wireless carrier’s network. Check with your carrier to determine the fees that apply.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Binding Arbitration

To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy or claim related to these Terms of Use (each a “Dispute” and collectively, “Disputes”), any Dispute brought by either you or us (individually, a “Party” and collectively, the “Parties”) shall be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WITHOUT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and, where appropriate, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (“AAA Consumer Rules”), both of which are available at the AAA website www.adr.org. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA Consumer Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. The arbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by either Party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. Except where otherwise required by the applicable AAA rules or applicable law, the arbitration will take place in Nova Scotia, Canada. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Parties may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.

If for any reason, a Dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the Dispute shall be commenced or prosecuted in the state and federal courts located in Nova Scotia, Canada and the Parties hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of, personal jurisdiction, and forum non convenient with respect to venue and jurisdiction in such state and federal courts. Application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the Uniform Computer Information Transaction Act (UCITA) are excluded from these Terms of Use.

In no event shall any Dispute brought by either Party related in any way to the Application or Services be commenced more than 1 year after the cause of action arose. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
